The Solution

When Mountain Seas Development planned to renovate its historic building located in downtown Park City, UT, space-conscious design was imperative. Since the building sits on extremely valuable land on Main Street, every square foot was precious.

Mountain Seas sought to update the building's existing retail space and build an addition for a three-level apartment above it. Additionally, the building's listing in the historical registry made the project challenging.Since the renovation would require breaking ground for new retail space in the basement and adding the apartment, the project's general contractor, Al Coelho, foresaw that the project's main problem would be fitting all of the necessary mechanical equipment into a tight mechanical room.
